Cam’ron has taken stuntin’ to a whole new level, with the release of his latest hard-hitting track, “It’s Only Money” — check it out below.
On Thursday (August 3), the Harlem native released the cover art and song for his latest drop, on which he flexes his longstanding influence on the music industry amid his transition from rapper-actor to sports show host.

With several stunt-tastic lyrics like “Half a million dollars on my left hand” and “Photoshoot with Tom Brady’s wife,” the Dipset frontman seemingly cements he still is and always has been that guy.
Meanwhile, on the hook, Cam alludes to having endless wealth, rapping: “It’s only money/ I said it’s only money (Oh, he ain’t got it?)/ We done heard it’s timing / Yeah, it’s only money/ Who you? I’m just who all the ladies like (What you done?)/ Photoshoot with Tom Brady’s wife/ Naomi Campbell and … Now I snatch the models off of IG.”

Later on the track, the 47-year-old doubles down on claims that business has been so good, he hasn’t spent a dime since his 2006 album, Killa Season.
Check out the song below:
The song comes on the heels of Cam’s admission, that while he currently spearheads a sports talk show with fellow rapper Ma$e — It Is What It Is — he hasn’t lost his mojo on the microphone.
Earlier this week, Cam’ron took to Instagram where he uploaded a throwback freestyle where he spits while chilling in his hometown, as a reminder that when it comes to rapping, he can still “do this shit in [his] sleep.”

“Let’s face this, I’m tasteless/ Let me tell you about my day, nothing crazy, just the basics/ I go to a bitch job, tell her to leave, come with me/ She said, ‘Why Cam?’/ I said, ‘Honey, you just a waitress’/ Outside this restaurant, I got a two-seater spaceship/ 200 thou, five hours, me in six different places,” he rapped a cappella.
He continued: “If I don’t go personally, I send my cars to the cookout/ Ms. Barbara, 80 years old on the stoop, still my lookout/ Her son Ronny my shooter, call him, ya lights get put out/ My n-ggas get booked, I go to bookings and from bookings we book out.”
Cam’ron also recently proved he’s quite a persuasive businessman in his efforts to recruit NFL Hall of Famer and former Undisputed co-host Shannon Sharpe to join his squad.
“Shannon, you definitely got a home here,” Killa said in an episode of his podcast “Yo, listen my n-gga – come to It Is What It Is. N-gga, you know how much bread we get? And you could be you ‘cause we being us. Yo, shit would be wild, my n-gga. I’m telling you!”

He continued: “I know you got [your podcast] Club Shay Shay and I know you not just reaching the buyout without something else lined up. But think about it my n-gga, it makes mad sense. Mad sense.”
While Sharpe has not responded to Cam’s offer, that may be due to reports he’s entertaining other options. According to Deadline, it looks like Sharpe is going to join ESPN’s First Take.
